In the early afternoon of sunny Sunday 25 th, when I finished my work activities, I departed to Santa Rosa city. As I drove lonely, I asked myself: why not visit my friend Iñaki and attempt, if he wants to join me, to complete the DC 3865 ?. I didn’t require more than 25 kilometres to go to “La Sara” Ranch to find him. I took the route 28 and when I arrived, Iñaki recognized me immediately.

Together with Pablo, his new peasant, we took “mate” and we reminded our previous meeting, when Atilio and me appeared in the middle of the bushes, like people from Mars, looking for our first confluences.

I gave him a copy of the visit #1 published in Degree Confluence Project and he was very happy for being “famous” in Internet.

I couldn’t go alone to catch DC 3865 because it was necessary to walk around 2 kilometres in the middle of the dense bushes so I proposed them to go with me to the confluence and to share the honour of catching it.

They accepted and then we approached with the vehicle at 1900 meters on the parallel 38. There we began to walk in the bushes with very much difficulties. “Jarillas”, “alpatacos” and “caldenes” complicated our progress and obligated us to do big loops instead of straight line.

After 45 minutes we reached the confluence in a place a little more clear. All of us enjoyed, especially Iñaki and Pablo because it was their first hunt of confluence. They hunt wild boar and other wild animals, but not “untouchable” things like geographic coordinates.

We took the habitual photographs and we returned at first by the same track in the bushes guided by my GPS. Later we’d saw that the round trip was very different. In the middle of the forest all is the same.

We returned to the farmhouse, where we commented the “adventure” and we greeted ourselves with the promise of joining again in the future. It was late in the afternoon and I had to drive 200 kilometres by night in non paved roads.

Before my departure, Iñaki surprised me with a special gift: a lamb of a wild boar for cooking in Santa Rosa in order to celebrate the new successful confluence.
